Aristotle quoted: with genius there comes a degree of madness, but in the case of Aaron Yarn this quote is turned on its head. The dominant driving force in Yarn is insanity. Yarn is a misanthrope: a hater of human kind and he fixates much of his hate on one man: Spencer Corwin, a police officer who has accidentally ran Yarn down in his patrol car leaving him crippled for months. Aaron Yarn is a Satanist who believes he is the collector of souls he believes that every death attributed to him will please his master who will grant him the ultimate prize. Aaron Yarn's degree of genius, however, comes in the form of educational achievement namely the mysteries of biological chemistry and it is with this knowledge he believes he can multiply his quota of souls, win his masters adoration and the gift of everlasting life.
The result of more than twenty years' research, this seven-volume book lists over 23,000 people and 8,500 marriages, all related to each other by birth or marriage and grouped into families with the surnames Brandt, Cencia, Cressman, Dybdall, Froelich, Henry, Knutson, Kohn, Krenz, Marsh, Meilgaard, Newell, Panetti, Raub, Richardson, Serra, Tempera, Walters, Whirry, and Young. Other frequently-occurring surnames include: Greene, Bartlett, Eastman, Smith, Wright, Davis, Denison, Arnold, Brown, Johnson, Spencer, Crossmann, Colby, Knighten, Wilbur, Marsh, Parker, Olmstead, Bowman, Hawley, Curtis, Adams, Hollingsworth, Rowley, Millis, and Howell. A few records extend back as far as the tenth century in Europe. The earliest recorded arrival in the New World was in 1626 with many more arrivals in the 1630s and 1640s. Until recent decades, the family has lived entirely north of the Mason-Dixon Line.
